Chiangale does a lot of great things, but one of the best is their fried chicken. Get vendors to take you there, steer out of town clients there, convince a relative that this restaurant has the best view of the harbor… but find a way to have a plate of that chicken placed in front of you. I don’t know how typical of Italian cuisine it is, but you don’t complain when an Oriole actually hits a home run, do you?
If you like your fried fowl a little less expensive and don’t mind eating from a cart parked where you’d have second thoughts about parking your car, then take a walk up Central Avenue to Me Moms on whichever day of the week they decide to deep fry a turkey. Around $7 will get you a sandwich piled high with this treat – which falls into the category of things you’re really best off not trying at home – and the best fries in Harbor East. And they’re really nice people. Nice people deep frying turkeys, that’s worth something.
The best things are things you have to wait awhile for, and one of those is the pumpkin truffles at Glarus Chocolate on Exeter. You can’t have one right now. You’ll have to wait. But it is like all the goodness of a pumpkin pie wrapped up in chocolate. A ping pong ball sized dollop of heaven. Great. Now I want one.
